Who's counting

mid week motif
dverse

you owe me 13 cherry kisses
3 french hens 5 golden rings
13 squeezes a partridge in a pear tree
13 pink whispers (not chinese )



budgie smugglers

if you do not tell me you love me within 13 days
i will plant 13 camelia bushes in your front yard
steal all 13 of your budgie smugglers and wear them as hats



i will  send snowhite and 7 (doubled minus one) dwarves to your house
to fire 13 missiles into your jacuzzi



it will take me 13 hours or even days to get over you
i will cry 13 salty tear drops into 13 lace handkerchiefs
every 13th day of every month
calling out your 13 hyphenated names

  17. Ha Ha You've got me wondering which one was left out on the second go around . . . Is that why Grumpy is so . . . . or is could've been Sleepy snoring away . . . .

  20. Ha ha ha. I wonder if just for the sake of fun, the recipient of the threats in your piece will simply refuse to pay her debts. I know that's what I'll do. :-) I enjoyed reading your piece.

  21. You nailed your thirteen in a humorous, creative, cartoony way. I love it, I love the Snow White references and the 13 things-concept. You are awesome too!!!
